Prettiness...

In my last post I meant to show you another pretty thing I have recently acquired, but annoyingly forgot to include it in my post... it was a little present, for no particular reason, from Roon (my lovely sister-in-law) - aren't unexpected presents the best?!




Lovely 'HOME' blocks!  Don't they look so lovely next to my little quilt?!


The sun was in the wrong place, so this looks a bit dingy I'm afraid - poor photography skills!  I guess I should say that it was my camera that was in the wrong place - the sun was merrily shining in the sky where it should have been!!!  Heheheeee...


Thanks again Roon!!




Oh, and I have been meaning to say a big thank you to Hazel, for awarding me with the Sunshine award!  Go check out her blog, Ramblings and Such - she's recently renovated a dresser and chest of drawers that look really great.


I'm really sorry, but I'm not going to answer the questions or pass the award on (I know, what kind of an evil witch am I?!) - I've done a few in the past, and am running out of blogs that I haven't already passed awards onto!  I do really appreciate the thought, though - thank you Hazel.


And before I go, a picture of what I've just started working on (let's forget all the projects I should be finishing...!)




I'll show you more when (if!) I get it finished!


Oh... and one last thing - it was the Lumberjack's birthday yesterday... here is the cake I baked him:




We had such a lovely day out in the sunshine at Hinton Ampner - such a pretty place!


I hope you've all been enjoying the weekend and the beautiful weather!  :o)

  3. Oh you are lucky getting such a lovely wee pressie! Love the 'home' blocks. Couldn't comment on my phone on your last post, but your table runner is gorgeous, I adore Tilda fabrics and you've done a great job :)

    I wonder if you've got the patchwork bug now?
